Who Is the Dakota warwick?

Aberdeen Pioneer.
: A Rapid City correspondent of the
ST Paul GLOBE says that Hon. M. II.
Day is the Warwick of Dakota De-
called the skiing maker" The CORE
spondent is Otf-badly off. Day has not
made king. On the other hand the
powers that be have been ''trompings'
the life out of Day. The Pioneer likes
Mr.. Day-thinkS we'll of him-and all
that-but he is no Warwick. The real
Warwick OF our Dakota politics is Mai.
Edwards, of the Fargo Argus. He made
the late Delegate Raymond at Grand
Forks, and two years later he unmade
him at Pierre. When it comes to setting
men up and pulling men down Edwards
towers above his fellows, like Saul, the
first king of Israel. Whether he will
maintain his position by making Gen.
Allen delegate to congress next year
remains to be seen.

Only Hill Can Do 1t.

Ra pid City Journal.
As the matter has been made public
through the Rapid City correspondence
of the st. Paul GLOBE, it may be stated
that Rapid City does hope to secure
the extension of the Duluth, Pierre &
Black Hills line of the Manitoba syS-
tenn to this place, and that there is very
good grounds for such hope. People
have come to look upon j. J. Hill as the
only man in the Northwest who has en-
ergy and enterprise enough to build
across the Sioux reservation without
waiting for it to be opened for settle
ment.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

The editor of the Dell Rapids Expo
nent is surprising type of the Dakota
Journalist. He has tortured Squib, in
tended asa pleasantly, into a gross in
suit, and relieved himself OF good deal
of bile in burst of holy indignation.
The GLOBE has the kindest feelings for
the young fellow. and had no thought of
offending him. Probably if GRIswoLD
had been reundly abused he would have
taken it as joke. At any rate, when a
very bad picture of him was printed in
the GLOBE. few weeks ago, he never
made a sign of kick.

After Maj. MCLAUGHLIN gave ALEC

was expected that some new political

Well, now, amt Judge FRANCIS just

have given him some pointers that did
him good.
1t looks very much as if Judge
PALMER has made break. If he gets
the rural editors after him he had just
as we'll lay down his fiddle and hang up
his bow.
Ex-Gov. PIERCE should not show his
jealousy of Gov. CHURCH. On the COZ
trary, he shovld cultivate the spirit of
gratitude and feel kindly to Democrats
because of the consideration shown him
by Democratic administration.
~
The Redfield Dispatch refers to him
as ex-Gov. Northern Pacific PIERCE.
There is a world of meaning in the ex-
preston.
Since Gov. CHURCH and Gen. TYNER
each assumed the responsibility for the
action taken in the BROwN-WEBB mat
ter, there has been very little croaking.
Either one of them alone would have
done just as well.

Opposition is developing to Judge
PALMER's proposed judicial district
bill. 1t is claimed that the divisions are
not satisfactory to all parts of the terri
tory.

Eager settlers, who expected to squat
on the Yankton and Sisseton Indian
reservations at once, will be disap-
pointed. They cannot do so, even after
the lands are divided in severalty, until
after the Indians consent to sell the re-
naming lands to the government. 1t is
not so soft snap, after all.
The trial of the Indian murderer,
Handsome Elk, which begins at Cham
berlain in a few days, promises to be
one of peculiar interest. The value of
Indian customs before the law will be
involved, and desperate fight will no
doubt be made.

Crime.
Special to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN. Sept. SG-One of the
most interesting cases that will be tried
in the district court, which convenes
here Oct. 4, is that of the Sioux Indian,
Handsome Elk. for the murder of his
tather-in-law, One Eye. The murder
was committed on Medicine creek, in
the Sioux reservation, on Sept. "A, 1885.
The immediate cause ~of the murder
grew out of a wagon trade. There had
been bad blood between them for some
time, and One Eye being somewhat
afraid of Handsome Elk, decided to
leave the vicinity of Medicine creek and
seek the safer and more peaceful wales

half an hour or more; then strain

For WOODEN dress, dip the part

The Galveston Neaos makes the
following argument against prohibi-
ton: The Prohibitionists say that
the people of Texas pay S50,0OO,-
600 year for liquors This sum
is a dead loss to the people, and the
people would be $5O,000,O00 a
year richer if liquor were prohibits
ted. So far so good, but why not
save the people round S100,O00,-
900 year and at the same time
rid the land of dogs and hydropho-
bia? Texas doubtless contains 9.
100000 dogs. These dogs con-
sumo the substance of the poor
man, make havoc among the sheep
howl and suck eggs. They make
night hideous, interrupt religious
devOtiOns and torment the sick
and nervous. IF the government
must take charge Of the people and
control their private affairs, why
not prohibit dogs?' If the NeOs
will advocate constitutional
amendment prohibiting dogs, it
may succeed in havingit adopted.
Without whisky and dogs Texas
would have boom compared to
which the booms of other States
would be mere boomlets.
